TitlePeace Corps Correspondence Match
Body
From Nathan Lutz:

The Peace Corps is looking for additional teachers to participate in the Correspondence Match program. Currently, the Peace Corps has more Volunteers in the field than at any time since 1970; and with more Volunteers interested in the program, they need more teachers with whom they can correspond.

I currently participate with two such volunteers who share stories about the countries where they are volunteering. My students really look forward to hearing their news. They also like asking questions. There are volunteers in many countries throughout the world - perhaps a country that you teach about in your world language classes.

If you would be interested in a match, or if there are teachers at your school who you think might be interested in participating, please forward this email to them with our new promotional poster, found here: http://www.peacecorps.gov/wws/correspond/pdf/enroll-cm-educ.pdf

Encourage you colleagues to take advantage of this wonderful program to help U.S. students learn more about other countries and cultures by corresponding with a Peace Corps Volunteer. Teachers can also learn more about the program and enroll online at: http://www.peacecorps.gov/wws/correspond .
